Bottom line is this: October is all about putting aside the excuses, ignoring the black cats and superstitions, and coming together at the right time. One of these teams might have the magic to finally pull it off this year.

“…the Dodgers, who haven’t brought a title back to Chavez Ravine since 1981…”
What about 1988? I remember that was a pretty good year for the Dodgers. Hard to be better than the best, which they were that year. Who could forget Gibby’s clutch homer of Eck’s hanging slider?

i just hope steve bartman is ok…..i hope he’s living a normal life now, i mean give the guy a break, its been 5 years, and moises alou shouldnt have acted like a little spoiled brat then maybe alex gonzalez and the rest of the AACTUAL PLAYERS ON THE TEAM would not have crumbled like they did back in that faitful 8th inning…man though those were the days, back when homeruns were flying everywhere and sammy sosa was good

I agree, fenway. Bartman may very well be the most screwed over guy in the history of baseball that’s never actually worked for a team. I fully blame that loss on Gonzo choking, and not on Bartman.
Don’t miss Sammy, though.http://cubtastic.mlblogs.com
